Copper fuel pipe
Where's the best place to buy 8mm copper fuel pipe. This is for fuel injection. I intend to run 8mm rubber or braided pipe from the fuel pump to
the copper that will run through the tunnel then back to rubber.
Will 8mm OD be okay for this?

Find your local builders merchant / plumbers merchant and buy it there - its called 8mm microbore pipe. You can then get the solder fittings to do
tight 90 degree bends if needed (although gentle bends are better for flow).

Kunifer is available in 8mm , available from your local motor factors, is less likely to kink than microbore and is stronger . The down side it is
more expensive

Can you buy this off the net if so where as I've done a search but can't find any. I've also contacted a couple of places local to
me and they don't do it!!!
